Spinnaker 1.18 was released on 22nd Jan 2020. This release brings fixes, features, and performance improvements across a wide feature set in Spinnaker. Here we share the summary of important improvements

Prerequisites:

This release requires Halyard Version 1.29.0 or later.

List of New Fixes and Features:

Introducing support to deploy and manager Alibaba Cloud load balancers.

Supports to execute CloudFormation Changeset:

This stage allows users to manage a changeset that allows users to review the changes in the AWS infrastructure before applying them.

This new feature enables users to pause the pipeline execution until the user executes the change manually through Deck itself without having to go to AWS console. Users can also configure pre-defined behavior when the created changeset contains a “replacement” in CloudFormation jargon, which can protect users from data-loss and unrecoverable changes in the infrastructure.
